Chapter 1094: Chapter 1091: Xiao Lizi and Baby Boy. Extra (52)

This community, though bustling, maintains a tranquil interior, housing many influential figures.

From the community to the main road, there is a stretch that outsiders are not allowed in, flanked by old trees that are decades or even over a hundred years old.

At this time of year, the gradually yellowing leaves covered the trees and carpeted the ground, and Bai Lu and Yan Xu, stepping on the thick layer of yellow leaves, slowly moved forward amidst the rustling sound occasionally mixed with the noise of passing cars.

The pair had left the Yan family house and initially chatted about the embarrassing moments of their childhood with Xiaolu and Zong Xiaoyan; somehow, the conversation had shifted to Yan Xu’s rehabilitation.

"Speaking of which, I looked over your rehabilitation report this afternoon, you don’t mind, do you?"

Yan Xu shook his head, "You are also one of my treating doctors, what’s there to mind about a doctor checking a patient’s rehabilitation report?"

Bai Lu couldn’t help but laugh, "I thought you didn’t mind because I’m an acquaintance. Turns out it’s because I am the treating doctor."

During the conversation, Yan Xu, who had previously been carelessly pocketing his hands in his pants, suddenly pulled them out and reached over.

Bai Lu instinctively tilted her head, "Don’t move, you have a bug on your head!"

Bai Lu instantly froze, staring at him in horror.

Then, she saw him take a leaf off her head.

Bai Lu immediately breathed a sigh of relief and, without thinking, slapped his chest, "Yan Xu, how can you be so childish, scaring people with such pranks at your age!"

Yan Xu’s lips curled with a smile, "Doctor Bai, you’re also of an age, and yet you got scared just like that?"

Bai Lu’s hand rose again, but suddenly remembering he was still a recovering wounded soldier, she reluctantly withdrew her hand and glared at him fiercely, "There’s no rule stating that doctors can’t be afraid of bugs, or that one can’t fear bugs just because they are older, right?"

Yan Xu still smiled, making Bai Lu think about what her mentor had told her during the day.

The mentor had said, the elders of the Yan family are old foxes, and the young ones are little foxes!

Indeed, the mentor’s discernment was harsh!

He had seen right through this young master’s true nature.

Yan Xu threw the leaf into a nearby trash can and eyed her skeptically, "Are you afraid of bugs?"

Bai Lu didn’t know where his misconception came from that she wouldn’t be afraid of bugs.

Yan Xu added, "I thought you were fearless!"

Bai Lu quickly set the record straight, "Hold on, although I am a doctor, I am still a great beauty, and a beauty has to be afraid when she needs to be!"

In fact, while she was braver than most girls, she was nowhere near being invulnerable.

Yan Xu then sincerely apologized to her and promised never to scare her with such childish things again.

However, Bai Lu’s intuition told her that his promise was unreliable.

But she was too lazy to argue with him and steered the conversation back to the main topic.

"Your rehabilitation report states that you began resuming training gradually to military team standards a few days ago?"

Honestly, as one of his treating doctors, Bai Lu did not advise him to start such intense training so soon.

Yan Xu was also upfront, "Yes, just a bit, I fear that if I rest too long, it will be difficult to return to my optimal condition."

Bai Lu frowned, "Yan Xu, whether as your doctor or your friend, I advise you to slow down. What you’re doing now is very risky, do you understand?"

Yan Xu was much calmer than Bai Lu, "Don’t worry, I’ve had Director Luo give me a detailed assessment. Although it’s risky, given my physical conditions, it’s not impossible."

Bai Lu still refused to let it go, "My master didn’t say it was impossible, but maybe there’s just a one percent chance."

Yan Xu patted her shoulder to comfort her, "Bai Lu, trust me, even if there’s only a one in ten thousand chance, I’ll make it happen, so don’t worry, I’ll definitely overcome it."

Of course, Bai Lu knew that whether in terms of physical functions or willpower, he was thousands of times stronger than the commoner.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t be involved in such top-secret and important tasks at such a young age.

"Bai Lu, my job doesn’t allow me to recover slowly at the pace of others..."

Having said this, Bai Lu had no reason or motivation to stop him anymore.

"Alright, then I hope you can accept the suggestion to have a detailed examination once a week."

Yan Xu nodded his head, "That’s no problem, I’ll definitely cooperate actively."

As they talked and walked, they unknowingly reached the entrance of the supermarket.

The carts were outside the supermarket, and Bai Lu picked a large one from the various sizes available.

Yan Xu, being the gentleman, moved the shopping cart over, "Are you planning to buy a lot of stuff?"

"Just looking around..."

Yan Xu soon found out how broad ’just looking around’ could be for Bai Lu.

In the snack section, after casually glancing for a while, her cart was half-filled with chips, cotton candy, lollipops, and various kinds of preserved fruits and dried meat.

In the beverage section, Bai Lu first grabbed a few cans of cocktails and threw them into the cart, then picked up several kinds of juices, soda water, and a few cans of drinks that Yan Xu hadn’t managed to see clearly before they were buried by newer drinks she tossed on top.

In the cleansing products section, Bai Lu first picked up a can of milk and floral scented moisturizing body wash, followed by a large number of items like shampoo and face wash.

In the fresh fruits section, Bai Lu picked up two boxes of imported cherries, three grapefruits, several avocados, a box of red kiwis, and a large bunch of grapes.

If Yan Xu didn’t know Bai Lu inside out, he would have suspected that she was stocking up on disaster supplies.

When Bai Lu suggested checking out the meat section while pushing the cart, Yan Xu finally couldn’t help but remind her.

"Bai Lu, what are you going to buy in the meat section? You don’t need to buy groceries at home."

Reminded by him, Bai Lu patted her forehead, "Right, I’m currently freeloading at your house. Let’s go pay then."

After the incident of fetching the luggage in the evening, Bai Lu didn’t dare to forcibly take tasks from Yan Xu’s hands anymore, she just walked alongside him, her hand resting on the edge of the cart, pushing with a bit of force.

The market wasn’t crowded as it wasn’t the weekend; after a few people, it was their turn to check out. The young guy at the cashier’s desk helped take the items out of the shopping cart one by one, looking at the pile that formed like a small mountain, the young guy grinned at them.

"You young couple must be busy normally, coming to the supermarket so infrequently that you feel the need to stuff your fridge full for peace of mind, right?"

Bai Lu awkwardly glanced at Yan Xu, "No, young man, you’re mistaken, he’s my younger brother!"

The young man laughed even more happily, "Then the younger brother really knows how to take care of someone!"

Bai Lu snorted a laugh and, tilting her head glanced sideways at Yan Xu with a smirk, "Yes, he is quite good at pampering people!"

While speaking, she specifically tiptoed and reached out to pet Yan Xu’s head.
